So, I acquired a bunch of 80s music for Better off Dead. Here is a printout of my list so far. Warning: it's a PDF. I don't know how to get iTunes to export my playlist as a text document. And the music isn't organized in any way.

Basically: What's not on there that you'd expect to hear at an 80s prom?

Is there any way to salvage a laptop once it's gotten wet?

So, Google Chrome.

Like it? Love it? Hate it?

I'm looking into it and am wondering how others have fared.

So, I'm stuck at a level in Portal where in order to progress, I need to jump off a cliff (into a portal) in order to come out jumping as high as possible on the other side.

My question is this: Do you gain more momentum by
a) pencil-dropping into a portal close to the base
or
b) jumping on an angle into a portal some distance from the base?

Whichever it is, I need to figure out how to get that extra edge. I'm coming up just barely too short every time.

EDIT: To help, here's a cheap little diagram:

1. Jump into hole.
2. Come out of hole full-force
3. Shoot next platform with previous color portal at apex of jump
4. Come out of new portal instead, repeat 3

That continues for about 4 platforms or so.

Before I do this (because blocking telemarketers is a plus), is it a scam?

Legit? Not?

Is it safe to take pictures of a lunar eclipse with my digital camera?

I have no experience whatsoever with this sort of thing, and thought someone might know.
